He enjoys challenges that accompany new projects and loves that each day is different. One of his biggest challenges so far has been the integration of new sales and tenders systems last November. This involves the accounting systems, treasury set systems and POS systems. “It’s been all hands-on deck to make sure nothing slips through the cracks”.

An associate of Areas for fourteen years, this person oversees and is responsible for over 300 merchant accounts. He is responsible for making sure all tender transactions funnel to the correct accounts in Areas USA’s accounting system. This includes working with I.T. to ensure everything from the POS’s are funneling through the back-office system correctly. “Working together is key. I love how everyone in different departments support one another. We have been working together a long time, so it feels like a family instead of colleagues”.

This individual is also responsible to ensure that every AP transaction is accounted for. He is no stranger to cash forecasting throughout the year and needs to make sure there is enough liquidity to handle the day-to-day financial transactions. Therefore, management of Areas’ banking relationships would also be a key item on his checklist of responsibilities.

“I love the position I am in because no two days are the same. I’ve never been bored. Areas is constantly providing new opportunities and sees the potential and strengths in employees.”  What he likes best about working for Areas are the new challenges, his team and appreciation for the entire accounting department. “We are as strong as our team, and I appreciate the team I work with.”
